Egyptian hand

Phoenician kaph

Greek kappa

Κ (κ)

Kaph is thought to have been derived from a pictogram of a hand (in both modern Arabic and modern Hebrew, kaph means palm/grip) ...

... The manik, with the tzab, or serpent's rattles as prefix, runs across Madrid tz. 22 , the figures in the pictures all holding the rattle; it runs across the hunting scenes of Madrid tz. 61, 62, and finally appears in all four clauses of tz. 175, the so-called 'baptism' tzolkin. It seems impossible, with all this, to avoid assigning the value of grasping or receiving. But in the final confirmation, we have the direct evidence of the signs for East and West. For the East we have the glyph Ahau-Kin, the Lord Sun, the Lord of Day; for the West we have Manik-Kin, exactly corresponding to the term Chikin, the biting or eating of the Sun, seizing it in the mouth.

The pictures (from Gates) show east, north, west, and south; respectively (the lower two glyphs) 'Lord' (Ahau) and 'grasp' (Manik). Manik was the 7th day sign of the 20 and Ahau the last ...

Caph (Hand, β Cassiopeiae) was at the Rear Spout and this surely was a place where the Sun would be drenched. Here Caph and Sirrah rose at the same time together with the Sun.

Metoro's words kua ruku te manu could have been provoked by the whole set of 6 glyphs above, where only the top part of the images were visible (the rest looking as if submerged).

Ruku

(Also rukuruku): To dive; to fish underwater; diving; i-turu-era au ki tai, he-ûi koai te tagata era, e-ruku-mai-era i te îka, i te ura, as I went down to the sea, I saw who those people were, who were fishing underwater for fish and lobsters. Vanaga.

To bathe, to immerse, to swim face down, to dive, to leap into the water from a height. Hakaruku, to cover with water, to immerse, to submerge, to moisten, to wash, to drink. P Mgv.: ruku, to dive, to plunge. Mq.: úku, to dive, to immerse. Churchill.

... Maui, in the custom of ancient times, had several different names. At the beginning he was Maui potiki because he was the youngest child. Then he had his given name, Maui tikitiki a Taranga, and later he acquired other names for different sides of his character. According to what he was up to he might be known as Maui nukarau, or Maui-the-trickster; Maui atamai, Maui-the-quick-witted; Maui mohio, Maui-the-knowing; Maui toa, Maui-the-brave; and so on. He was an expert at the game of teka, or dart-throwing, and all the best patterns in the string game of whai, or cat's cradles, were invented by Maui.

He was also a great kite-flier, and the story is told of a small boy of another name (but it could only have been Maui) who once came half out of the water and snatched the kite-string of a child on the land. He then slipped back into the sea and continued flying it from under the water until his mother was fetched, for she was the only one who could control him and make him behave at that time ...

... In the deep night before the image [of Lono] is first seen, there is a Makahiki ceremony called 'splashing-water' (hi'uwai). Kepelino tells of sacred chiefs being carried to the water where the people in their finery are bathing; in the excitement created by the beauty of their attire, 'one person was attracted to another, and the result', says this convert to Catholicism, 'was by no means good'. At dawn, when the people emerged from their amorous sport, there standing on the beach was the image of Lono. White tapa cloth and skins of the ka'upu bird hang from the horizontal bar of the tall crosspiece image. The ka'upu is almost certainly the albatross, a migratory bird that appears in the western Hawaiian chain - the white Lanyon albatross at Ni'ihau Island - to breed and lay eggs in October-November, or the beginning of the Makahiki season ...

September 20 (263) - when all the fires were 'quenched' - would then be followed by 5 days of lighting the new Flame, and September 25 (263 + 5 = 268) would have had α Phoenicis (Ankaa) close to the Full Moon. From the Phoenix bird, in his ashes (te kihikihi), a new fire could be generated.

Kihikihi, lichen; also: grey, greenish grey, ashen. Vanaga. Kihikihi, lichen T, stone T. Churchill.

The Hawaiian day was divided in three general parts, like that of the early Greeks and Latins, - morning, noon, and afternoon - Kakahi-aka, breaking the shadows, scil. of night; Awakea, for Ao-akea, the plain full day; and Auina-la, the decline of the day. The lapse of the night, however, was noted by five stations, if I may say so, and four intervals of time, viz.: (1.) Kihi, at 6 P.M., or about sunset; (2.) Pili, between sunset and midnight; (3) Kau, indicating midnight; (4.) Pilipuka, between midnight and surise, or about 3 A.M.; (5.) Kihipuka, corresponding to sunrise, or about 6 A.M. ... (Fornander)

Cassiopeia would have been easy to find by everyone, given they did not try to look from a position too far down in the south.

And when her left breast (α Schedir) rose heliacally it was a sign of Sun having been reborn.

Delta in Andromeda was 3 days before η, when the Sun 'began to walk' - at the 15th Chinese station Legs (alluding to the Opener of the Way, the Wolf).

... They go inland at the land. The child nursed and tended grows up, is able to go and play. Each day he now goes off a bit further away, moving some distance away from the house, and then returns to their house. So it goes on and the child is fully grown and goes to play far away from the place where they live ...

The Sun (Horse) began to walk (on Land) in April 1, when the Full Moon had reached October 1, because this was 364 / 4 = 91 days from the beginning of the year.

... The letter shape ultimately goes back to a hieroglyph for 'courtyard' ... possibly named hasir in the Middle Bronze Age alphabets, while the name goes rather back to hayt, the name reconstructed for a letter derived from a hieroglyph for 'thread'

... string games could be resumed after it was clear that the Sun had managed to leave the horizon and was rapidly gaining in altitude: 'Before the sun starts to leave the horizon ... when it shows only on the horizon, ... then string games were no longer allowed as they might lacerate the sun. Once the sun had started to go higher and could be seen in its entirety, string games could be resumed, if one so wished. So the restriction on playing string games was only applicable during the period between the sun's return and its rising fully above the horizon ...
